The decision is being called out by Kenya’s National Gay & Lesbian Human Rights Commission.

UPDATE 11/3 9:30 AM EST: Following the coming out storyline on Disney Channel's Andi Mack, the series has been banned in Kenya.

On the season premiere of the series last Friday, Cyrus told Buffy that he has feelings for their friend Jonah. Varietyreports that the Kenya Film Classification Board announced the decision on Monday. According to a statement from the board's CEO Ezekiel Mutua, pay-TV and free-to-air stations are prohibited from broadcasting content “that is likely to influence children’s perceptions negatively on the institution of family” and cited "public complaints."

As Variety points out, this ban calls attention to the challenges creators of LGBTQ storylines face in certain places that have failed to embrace more progressive views.

Executive director of Kenya’s National Gay & Lesbian Human Rights Commission Njeri Gateru told Variety in a statement regarding Mutua's decision, "His consistent efforts to erase the narratives of queer people are sanctioned by the government, because the Kenyan government’s position has remained that queerness is a non-issue despite the continued harassment, discrimination and violence towards LGBTIQ individuals living in Kenya."

Here's the clip of Cyrus coming out if you haven't watched it yet:

A milestone moment is happening on Disney Channel this week and it’s thanks to Andi Mack. On Wednesday, it was announced that the show would feature a storyline centered on the coming out story of a young man. The story arc of the character, Cyrus Goodman, will be the Disney Channel’s first coming out story for any of their television shows and the announcement has been received, for the most part, with a super enthusiastic response.

Cyrus’s coming out story will be the centerpiece of an episode titled "Hey, Who Wants Pizza?” Cyrus’ story arc will revolve around his realization that he may be gay as he develops a crush on fellow character Jonah Beck. The storyline and the act of Cyrus discovery his own true sexuality is a landmark moment for Disney and its focus on Cyrus own self-discovery is what makes it so unique; he’ll be in control of his journey.

As various shows on the network continue to represent a broader variety of lifestyles and culturally significant stories, it's great to see that Andi Mack is giving a special focus is given to a young person’s coming out story.

Naturally, fans of the show were loving this announcement and made it known on Twitter. With comments ranging from how exciting it will be to see this kind of LGBTQ representation of the Disney Channel to sheer glee that they can celebrate one of their fave characters coming out, this news is definitely a good thing.
